It’s Summer – Day 40 and 41
Another two days of the summer holiday gone and just three left now. Yesterday I spent the day in school; face to face meetings, remote meetings; and sorting. Also watch a few episodes of Wolf Blood – I recommend it. I have a small budget to use for school improvements and the first meeting of … Continue reading
It’s Summer – Day 38 & 39
The last two days have been gently easing back into work after a great few weeks recovering from the relentless drive thorough lockdown.

It’s Summer – Day 37
Happy birthday first and foremost to my wife today. Awake at 08:30 so I can get the bikes to Halfords and back again for some grassroots football. How exciting are birthdays as you get older!

It’s Summer – Day 34
As day 34 comes to a close, nearly, I’m sitting outside listening to the daily geese flight over the campsite, heading west to… no idea! Anyone out there know? A hot day and one where we went walking; I cycled to the Chinese to pick up a takeaway; and now just reflecting on the fiasco … Continue reading
Another 5 km #running on holiday. #schoolholidays
